SL-630 Silica Matting Agent For Wood Lacquer

Applications of silicon dioxide

There are many ways to get silica Matting Agent from silicon dioxide. Normally we classified it into two different technical 

ways. One is gel method and the other is precipitation method. Through these two different technical treatments can make 

original silicon dioxide both into normative silica matting agent. 

How to turn silicon dioxide into silica matting agent?

Turning silicon dioxide (SiO2), commonly known as quartz, into silica matting agent involves a chemical process that alters its

surface properties without changing its basic composition. The goal is to create a material with a high surface area and a rough

texture that can be used in various applicationsUsing organic material or irorganic material to change the silicon dioxide's original

properties. Silica matting agent will have different particle size, porosity and density.

Here are some of the best properties of SiO2 that make it suitable for wood coating applications

1. Heat Insulation: Although not as significant as other materials, SiO2 can provide some thermal insulation, reducing heat transfer 

and helping to maintain a more comfortable temperature inside wooden structures.

2.Abrasion Resistance: The silica particles in the coating can improve the wear resistance of the wood, making it more suitable for 

high-traffic areas or where there's regular contact with heavy objects.

3.Easy Application: Silica-based products are often easy to apply and adhere well to various types of wood, including treated 

and untreated lumber.

4. Longevity: A silica treatment can extend the lifespan of wooden surfaces by protecting them from environmental damage and 

extending their overall performance.

5. Non-Toxic: Silica is a non-toxic and environmentally friendly option, making it a preferred choice for many eco-conscious 

consumers.

Some popular SiO2 treatments for wood include silicone sealers, clear coats, and wood preservatives. When choosing a product,

consider the specific needs of your wood project, such as outdoor exposure, aesthetics, and maintenance requirements. Always 

follow the manufacturer's instructions for best results.
